The Plumber

The Plumber

By Elton Camp

When the pipes under sink began to leak,
Help of Big Bubba’s Plumbing I did seek
Bubba promised he’d be there right away
And he showed up later that very same day

He said, “Big Bubba is here your pipes to fix.
I brought the tools to help me do the tricks.”
Wrenches, pliers, solder—nothing did he lack
But, so sad to say, he also had plumber’s crack

Ellen, Thanks for reading and commenting. This is a minor poem quickly written. I mainly wanted to show it is possible to write about almost anything--even a plumber's behind. Elton
